How can I preserve entity characters using Xml Document?-CodePudding

My question is simple, but I just can't find why I have this problem and can't resolve it. I need to read a XML file with values and use them on Unity. For now on, I read my document with its path :

XmlDocument doc = new XmlDocument();
doc.Load(path);
XmlElement root = doc.DocumentElement;

I have a Namespace Manager already configured. I read my data like this :

string text = node.SelectSingleNode("x:textRuns/x:DOMTextRun/x:characters", nsmgr).InnerText.Replace("&#xD;", Environment.NewLine);

My XML and the data I would like to extract :

<characters>Third occupant&#xD;folding seat</characters>

My objective is to replace this entity character : "& #xD;" with an Environment.NewLine.

I tried to :

Formalize the Xml in a file with a replace
Read with an InnerText, and an InnerXml
Make an entity char "detector"
Get the node with all its content (OuterXML)

It looks like this char, however you read it, is exclude and not readable, I just can't have it on my console.

CodePudding user response：

The entity has already been replaced once you extracted InnerText. Problem is, you have a CR (carriage return; 0x0D, \r) instead of a LF (line feed; 0x0A, \n). So replace "\r" by Environment.NewLine:

public static void Main() {
    XmlDocument doc = new XmlDocument();
    doc.LoadXml("<characters>Third occupant&#xD;folding seat</characters>");
    string text = doc.SelectSingleNode("/characters").InnerText;
    text = text.Replace("\r", Environment.NewLine);
    Console.WriteLine(text);
}
